An association has been reported between a dopamine D(2) receptor gene (DRD2) Ser311Cys variant and schizophrenia. In a replication attempt, Swedish patients with schizophrenia (n = 173) and control subjects (n = 236) were assessed for the DRD2 Ser311Cys variant. Schizophrenic patients displayed higher Cys311 allele frequencies than control subjects (4.0 vs. 0.8%, chi(2) = 9.49, df = 1, P = 0.002; odds ratio (OR) 4.93, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) 1.61-15.12). The association was detected only in men. The results were supported by a meta-analysis of all published case-control studies comprising a total of 9,152 subjects (chi(2) = 11.37, df = 1, P < 0.001; OR 1.43, 95% CI 1.16-1.78). The present results support the involvement of the DRD2 gene in the pathogenesis of schizophrenia.
